My colleagues and I have built a robot composed of many building blocks like the cells of a multicellular organism. Without a “brain” or a central controller in the system, our robot, dubbed Loopy, ...

In a tiny laboratory pond, a robotic stingray flaps its fins and swims around. Roughly the width of a dime, the bot dashes distances multiple times its body size. It easily navigates around corners ...

Yaskawa is aiming to open the door for a new stage of robotic automation with its Motoman NEXT Platform. The platform is designed to drive adaptive robot automation by leveraging machine learning and ...

Smart materials can change their shape or form in response to external stimuli, making them indispensable for many applications, including health equipment and automobiles, among others. Now, a ...

In a new study, researchers from the University of Tokyo, Harvard University, and the International Research Center for Neurointelligence have unveiled a technique for creating lifelike robotic skin ...

After several years spent honing its robotic cell therapy manufacturing system, Multiply Labs has snared its first collaboration with a major cell therapy developer. Multiply Labs and Legend ...

It’s a bizarre sight: With a short burst of light, a sponge-shaped robot scoots across a tiled surface. Flipped on its back, it repeatedly twitches as if doing sit-ups. By tinkering with the light’s ...

Cell therapy manufacturing has long been constrained by manual bottlenecks - steps that are labor-intensive, variable, and difficult to scale. Robotic automation is increasingly becoming key to ...
